A Squaddies Journey

Following on from Anthony's previous books, A Soldiers Son, The Army Catering Corps-Our Memories Volume 1 & 2. A Squaddies Journey finds him following on from being a soldiers 'Brat' and joining the Army Catering Corps as a teenager, and serving soldiers around the world.
This book captures many more memories of his time as a 'Squaddie', and the tours he made during the 1970's and 1980's.
These encompass his complete army career, with a sprinkling of the 'Pads' family life thrown in for good measure. Also included are a few nuggets of the Corps history at St Omer Barracks. Some veterans may recall a few of these tours, and "Civvies" may be intrigued;
From Belize in Central America, the wilderness of Medicine Hat in Canada and East Berlin, with many more tales to boot. This time he has finally accomplished what he set out to do.

"They appeared to have great pleasure in taking turns with every soldiers space during bull-nights, ripping army kit out of the lockers, and turning neatly folded bed covers, including the beds, upside down, and then sliding across the accommodation floors with their ammo boots, to scratch up the floor polish!"

"The funny thing was, sometime later in our new postings, soldiers caught on and used paint shine called "Morello".
So much for Bull-nights!

"Sir, my weapons jammed" as he turned the SLR around, pointing it at the Range Officer! We had to stop ourselves laughing, as everyone dived for some cover, and he got a hell of a rollicking"
